⚠ When you don’t want items to align in rows or columns @MicheBarks

Flexbox @MicheBarks https://codepen.io/michellebarker/pen/JgEYxv

Grid @MicheBarks https://codepen.io/michellebarker/pen/JgEYxv

⚠ When your fallback layout takes twice as long @MicheBarks

This won’t work in IE11 .grid { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr); } @supports not (display: grid) { .grid { display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; } } @MicheBarks

This will work .grid { display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; } @supports (display: grid) { .grid { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr); } } @MicheBarks
